Loop Flight League 2011 PDF Print E-mail
Written by Dave Evans   
Monday, 19 April 2010

The loop flight league is open to all PSC members who complete a loop flight within the Pennine area. You do not need to be pilot rated to enter loop flights but you must, as always, respect airspace and fly within the rules of air law. The best way to enter is to upload your tracklog directly to the XC league online (as a loop flight) or, if you prefer, send your GPS tracklog to the PG competition secretary as an IGC file by using the "Contacts" link on the website.

Next year, the loop league will be fully automated using the XC League and that will be the only way to enter flights. Please use that method this year so that we can test it and fix any problems. Entry to the Pennine section of the XC league is free to Pennine members and loop flights will count towards the overall result. If the loop flight is over 15km, it can also be entered into the national league.

Enter as many flights as you can, the best 6 will count. This year's contest will end on 31 December.
